Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

What is EMC?

Electromagnetic compatibility describes a level of performance of a device within its electromagnetic

environment. This environment consists of the device itself and its surroundings including other

equipment, power sources and persons with which the device must interface. Inadequate compatibility

results when a susceptible device fails to perform as intended due interference from its environment or

when the device produces unacceptable levels of emission to its environment. This interference is often

referred to as radio–frequency or electromagnetic interference (RFI/EMI) and can be radiated through

space or conducted over interconnecting power of signal cables. In addition to electromagnetic energy,

EMC also includes possible effects from electrical fields, magnetic fields, electrostatic discharge and

disturbances in the electrical power supply.

LOGIQ E9 conforms to all applicable conducted and radiated emission limits and to immunity from

electrostatic discharge, radiated and conducted RF fields, magnetic fields and power line transient

requirements.

Applicable standards are: 47CFR Part 18, IEC60601–1–2:2001.

For CE Compliance, it is critical that all covers, screws, shielding, gaskets, mesh, clamps, are

in good condition, installed tightly without skew or stress. Proper installation following all

comments noted in this service manual is required in order to achieve full EMC performance.
